I appreciate you playing it, but man, I canāt get used to that tile set!
You can get the app from the play store on your phone and Iām pretty sure itās free.
Iām a barbarian for my current playthrough!

It comes down to what youāre used to! I first played it 20 years ago and part of the appeal was the fac tit could fit on a floppy disc, I know it as an ASCII based game, I have tried various skins over the years but none of them feel right to me!

To each his own!
Iām sure me and my brother played it about 20ish years ago too. I must admit I used to cheat a bit and play in wizard mode.
Seriously though who plays Apex on Xbox?
In no particular orderā¦
Alan Wake(playable on XB1) is awesome, like playing a Stephen King novel. Really unique FPS-like combat system.
Assassins Creed Ezio Trilogy + AC4
Half-Life 2 + Episodes 1/2 and Portal 1/2 (playable on XB1 and PS3)
Dead Space 1-3 (XB1 and PS3)
Demons Soulsāthe original āSoulsā game and my favorite of them all (only on PS3, but might be getting a PS4 remaster)
Yu-Gi-Oh legacy of the duelist link evolution
And paladins are what Iāve been playing ATM
Really been jonesing for a meaty single player open- world game. Been playing The Outer Worlds (free on Game Pass). Itās not perfect but itās really, really good. Writing is excellent. Canāt wait to see what Obsidian does with that IP in the future.
Next up I might snag Red Dead Redemption 2 finally.
Lastly, I forgot to mention way back when that the Dark Souls series is probably my favorite series of all time. Itās been really influential, inspiring a Pathfinder campaign idea I might want to run at some point and some ideas Iād want to try in my miniature painting as I get better (like really dramatic, high contrast OSL)

Have you played Demons Souls? Like I said above, personally thatās my favorite of the āSoulsā games. Itās not as big as Dark Souls, but itās more elegant in some waysā¦ or maybe I just like the story and atmosphere more.
Red Dead 2 is great. In some ways itās rather tedious, but I approach it like another world to experience more than a game. I enjoy just sitting around fishing, hunting, and trading to upgrade my equipment or to buy supplies to go explore.

Anyone else excited for next month? I know I am for several but mostly Pokemon reasons.

I missed out on Demon Souls. I really hope they do a remaster of it.
To be honest, that sounds spectacular to me right now. And thatās how I played Skyrim. I had a bunch of mods that made it a survivalist game and upped the prices for pelts etc and rewards for bounties (and also difficulty).

I used to play lots of online multiplayer games like RuneScape, Guild Wars, Counter Strike but nowadays prefer games that I can actually finish and be done with, and not get shown up by people half my age, LOL!

Iāve played many. Having to pick one, Portal 2.
It makes you think more creatively than most games Iāve played.
It is a lot of fun the first time through, and maybe a year after. You can forget how to solve some chambers.
I also liked Arkham Asylum quite a bit. It was a very smooth playing game, and although the detective work was pretty much spoon fed, it was a very beautiful game, and a good tribute to the Batman franchise. The others never quite caught the magic in my opinion.
I liked bioshock, but it got old. It was just so different, and I loved the art deco themes.
Every gamer should play Half Life, so ahead of its time, although it is a shooter, and not all families feel they are appropriate, which I understand.

Bummed that DOOM Eternal got delayed. But im sure it is in good reason to not release it riddled with bugs.

Been debating revisiting the Arkham games esp now that theyāre on Game Pass. Def feel you on the sequels not capturing the magic of Asylum but personally I thought City was my fave.
Iāve tried to revisit a couple of times now but I keep getting distracted by the combat simulator lol.

I actually liked the newest one(was it called Arkham Knight?) the most. It was like Arkham City but bigger. They were all really good though.

Yes!
Last year I replayed the first Half Life for the first time in about 15 years and it still stands up, incredible fun! There was also a mod released last year called Echoes which is well worth checking out (it is free).
